Author Talk: Kateland Kelly In-Person
Kateland Kelly, the author of Sending Secular Prayers: How to Survive Medical Gaslighting, has practiced oncology, primary care, occupational medicine, emergency medicine, and internal medicine since 2010. She will define different types of care (urgent/emergency versus primary versus specialty), medical gaslighting, and discuss how dismissing patients leads to poor patient outcomes and what people can do to be proactive about preventing this happening to them. She will also read from her book and detail how to get clinicians to actually LISTEN to you when you are speaking to them. It's an ongoing battle for patients to not only understand their clinicians, but for clinicians to understand their patients. Each attendee will receive a handout with the definitions and action points they can use to create their History of Present Illness to ensure their medical story is preserved with accuracy.
